Just like its cousin, this is a quick to prepare soup that tastes decadent and fuels your body with cancer fighting cruciferous vegetables. Unlike its cousin, this soup has a distinct thai flavor and heat. Yum! One can of (BPA free!) beans such as garbanzo or cannellini, or quinoa, would be a nice addition if you would like to add some texture and more staying power to this soup, but we enjoyed it as it is written.

In a large soup pot over medium heat, water sauté the onion until translucent. Add the garlic and carrots, sauté about 5 minutes. Add the ginger, red curry paste, curry powder, and red pepper. Saute one more minute. Add the water, broth and coconut milk. Raise heat and bring to a boil. Add broccoli, lower heat, cover and simmer until broccoli is bright green and soft. Blend until smooth in batches. Add freshly ground pepper to taste.
